Some people may not know what off-the-grid or off-grid means, so here it is --- The term off-the-grid or off-grid refers to living in a self-sufficient manner without reliance on one or more public utilities.

Off-grid living is no longer a one room log cabin in the woods. It's energy independency. You don't have to rely on utility companies, you create your own power. Today, there are more than 180,000 off-grid homes in the US.

Red The Elf...

7:11 pm - 38 degrees - calm night...

Last night we got our Christmas tree up just in time... Red the Elf is back for another 24 days full of Christmas shenanigans!

By the way, that's a noble fir. It's the only kind of Christmas tree Tony believes in, so that's the kind of tree we get every single year.

Welcome

Have you ever dreamed of buying some property somewhere, to live a simpler, more sustainable life? We did, and we were crazy enough to do it.

Our family has chosen to live off-grid. We have purchased 22 acres in the foot hills of the Cascade Mountain Range in the Great Pacific Northwest. Our property is off-grid meaning we have no public utilities whatsoever.

With this blog we will let you know about our experiences in building our home off-grid and how the progress of that is going along with what off-grid living is like for us.
--- Enjoy!
